Chapter 45
Cheng Man smiled widely, and Tao Zhi couldn't help but feel lost in it, and she relaxed her persistence.
Eighteen or nineteen, youthful, is the age for dreaming. What if life is a little more reckless? Regardless of success or failure, the climb has already yielded the scenery along the way and created precious memories. Young people never seek the end; Tao Zhi couldn't help but laugh at herself for falling into a cliché.
She patted Cheng Man and said, "I hope you get what you want."
Cheng Jun has already stayed in City S and started interacting with various parties to prepare for entering the real estate industry.
He did return on the day of Cheng Man's thank-you banquet, but left again early the next morning. That night, Cheng Jun told Tao Zhi that he suggested buying a house directly without taking out a loan, and that he wanted to use his favor wisely.
Tao Zhi agreed to his request.
Tao Zhi had been used to a quiet life this year, but after coming back these few days, she couldn't get used to the constant sound of machines in her ears.
The same goes for Cheng Jin and Cheng Mingcheng. Since the first floor is a factory, there is no space for them to play, so they can only stay upstairs and move around in the rooms.
Cheng Xing was reading in the room. Tao Zhi stood at the door and looked at her for a while before raising her hand and knocking on the door.
When there was only one building, the workers' dormitory was next door, so Cheng Xing had to close the door after entering the room. It was nothing like now, where you can open the door at any time to ventilate the room.
Cheng Xing raised his head and saw that it was Tao Zhi, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
Tao Zhi walked into the room and sat down on a chair. "What book are you reading?"
Cheng Xing held up the book, "Financial Accounting".
Tao Zhi smiled knowingly, the seeds blossoming and bearing fruit. She put the book aside for a moment and asked, "Have any of your aunts or uncles come to you?"
Cheng Xing had a headache, "There are already several."
"Are they all trying to be your matchmaker?"
"Yes, I refused very clearly, but they acted as if they didn't hear me."
Tao Zhi sneered, "Because in their eyes, marrying you is a huge win. Even a wealthy man in remote mountainous areas has distant relatives, and besides, it costs nothing."
Moreover, Cheng Xing now looks like a little girl.
"It's not just me, my elder brother has some too."
"Cheng Hui?"
"On the day of the teacher appreciation banquet, I saw with my own eyes that more than one girl approached."
"Could it be that Cheng Hui has finally come to his senses?"
Cheng Xing laughed: "No, he came back and poured out his heart out to me. My brother doesn't have that idea anymore, he's just afraid of running into the same person..."
Tao Zhi asked, "Have you found any houses in S City?"
"Mom, in the area you mentioned, there are only a few good properties. I looked through them all in a short time."
"How about you and Cheng Hui go buy the house first?"
Cheng Xing opened his eyes wide: "Aren't you going to school first without waiting for Manman?"
"No need, she's in school and has holidays."
Cheng Xing thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll ask my elder brother."
Tao Zhi felt most sorry for Cheng Xing because she hadn't bought her a house in her past life. A house where no one could evict her, no matter who came. A home that belonged completely to her. Tao Zhi clearly remembered that, because she had nowhere to go, Cheng Xing refused to divorce, no matter how badly she was beaten, and was ultimately evicted by the Zhao family. After being forced to divorce, she lost her job, and with many jobs closed, she was forced to do manual labor. Her meager salary was barely enough to rent a small, shabby apartment, and she spent the rest of her life alone.
Tao Zhi wanted to give her confidence, which came from a lot of love and some money to rely on. In Tao Zhi's words, if you lay a solid material foundation first, spiritual development will not be difficult.
We Chinese people pay attention to "having a roof over your head", and this is the beginning of a woman standing up straight.
After discussing it, the brother and sister decided to go to S City first to take the opportunity to avoid people.
Tao Zhi asked them, "Do you have a bank account in S City?"
Cheng Hui and Cheng Xing shook their heads in unison.
Tao Zhi secretly cursed the old man for his incompetence.
"Then you two go first, and I'll transfer the money to Cheng Jun's account later."
"Mom, where's the child?"
"There are still many things to do after buying a house. How long do you think you'll stay this time?"
Cheng Xing recalled the time she vomited profusely on the bus on her way back home, her face instantly turning pale. Not wanting to suffer again, she said, "I'll take Cheng Jin with me."
Cheng Hui asked, "How can I work with a child?"
Tao Zhi glared at him: "Do you still want to trouble my old bones?"
Cheng Xing quickly replied, "You can ask an auntie. Look at Auntie Li before. She was very good at taking care of children."
Cheng Hui didn't think of this for a moment. He scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled.
Before Zhao Zihao went to find Cheng Jun, he left the Alto with the old man. Cheng Xing couldn't fight with her father for the car, and she didn't have the courage to drive to S City on her own.
Tao Zhi couldn't understand why Cheng Hui, who often traveled outside, was unwilling to take the driver's license test. She really wanted to knock Cheng Hui's head open to see what he was thinking.
Tao Zhi called Cheng Jun's cell phone and asked, "Is there anyone here who wants to go to S City from home?"
Cheng Jun was surprised: "Mom, how did you know?"
"I don't know anything. Your brother and sister are going to S City with Mingming and Cheng Jin. I'm worried about them."
Cheng Jun laughed heartily on the other end of the phone: "Mom, do my brothers and sisters know about your attitude?"
Tao Zhi was annoyed: "I said the same thing to their faces. Cheng Jun, give me some advice. They've been working here for so long, why can't they learn to be a little tougher?"
"It is easy to change the country, but difficult to change one's nature."
Cheng Jun named a few people, all of whom were close friends of his. When Tao Zhi went to see them off, she packed a bag of food and drinks for each of them and asked them to help take care of the children. These young people were very loyal and promised to take good care of them.
Cheng Xiangqian went to the countryside to instruct on the use of farm tools, and he left after Cheng Man's physical examination. When Tao Zhi returned home and saw the old man, she remembered that she had not asked for his opinion.
"Cheng Hui and Cheng Man went to S City. Do we want to buy a house together?"
Cheng Xiangqian replied: "Of course, if you buy together, you get a lower discount."
This reminded Tao Zhi, "If I pay in full, will I still get a discount?"
Cheng Xiangqian thought about it and said, "It seems to be the case."
"I always forget to ask, is the house you are looking at owned by an individual or a developer?"
Cheng Xiangqian smiled smugly: "You won't believe it if I tell you this, but I'm looking at houses that developers are holding back on."
Tao Zhi was indeed surprised: "How did you do it?"
"On the day we went to the beach, I was responsible for taking care of the two little ones. I saw a child being swept into the sea by the waves. I looked around at the time and no one had noticed. Cheng Jun was right on the shore, so I told him to save the child. After the child was rescued, the parents hurried over. It turned out that they had a villa on the shore, and the child had sneaked out to play in the sand and water while the adults weren't paying attention. Later, they invited me to the villa, and when we sat down to chat, we found out that they were real estate developers. Isn't that a connection?"
Tao Zhi smiled: "When luck comes, it is unstoppable."
